Visited and recorded by Kitty Humphries, Mildred Goss, and Trudie Davis-Long, April 1997.
These are the marked graves inside the fence. An article in the Granville County Heritage Book, Vol. 1 by Trudie Davis-Long states there are lots of graves outside the fence, some marked with field stones and others identified by depressions. The article states that William Henry Davis was the son of Thomas Davis & Elizabeth Jenkins (married in Warren County). William was born in Warren County; married Martha Rebecca Hicks; when she died he married Phoebe Macintosh. All of Thomas' children were born in Warren County, and it is suspected he moved to Granville County in the late 1830s. This information is given to date this cemetery, referred to as the "Davis Burying Ground" in the death certificate of William Jr., who never married.
